Such a great experience here. I usually find eye tests daunting but I felt at ease here & could not fault the service 😊
Been going here for 8 yrs plus. Fantastic service, staff friendly, kind, patient. Had to pop in and get a screw in my glasses, without hesitation, they were there to help. Recommend to anyone. Wonderful optician.
Fantastic experience with them today. Having ruined the lenses of prescription sunglasses, they said no repair was possible and I needed an eye test, as they could not use a 3-year-old prescription. I have a phobia about eye tests and would have put it off. But the optician said he could do me today if I wanted, and was so patient and kind I bit the bullet and it didn’t hurt! His colleagues were just as helpful with me choosing new frames, so what is usually a traumatic experience turned out to be fine. 5 all round!*
